In the inaugural episode, Traveler's editor of service and surveys, David Jefferys, talks about being a fanboy of the British Overseas Air Corporation (BOAC)—the precursor to British Airways. It was the airline Jefferys boarded for his first flight in 1965, a time when each plane ride came with a souvenir—keepsakes he's saved in a shoebox ever since. (Save for his matching BOAC tattoos.) For Jefferys, no airline embodied the feeling of fantasy associated with air travel better than BOAC, nor better represents a personal travel axiom: "The getting there is as important as being there."
